Why hire a campervan or motorhome in Eastern Austria
Eastern Austria — a region worth exploring
Eastern Austria stretches across 23,555 square kilometres and is home to the country's only steppe lake, Neusiedler See, a UNESCO World Heritage site shared with Hungary. The region encompasses three distinct federal states — Vienna, Lower Austria, and Burgenland — each offering a different flavour of Austrian life. From the grand architecture of Stephansdom in Vienna to the terraced vineyards of the Wachau Valley, another UNESCO-listed landscape, the variety is remarkable. The distance from Vienna to Eisenstadt, the capital of Burgenland, is just 60 km, while a drive from Vienna north-west to Krems an der Donau covers around 80 km, opening up the Danube corridor and its cycling paths, riverside campsites, and historic abbeys like Stift Melk. Flat plains in the Marchfeld and gentle hills in the Weinviertel make the region particularly welcoming for larger vehicles, with well-maintained roads and plenty of space to park up. Whether you want to explore thermal spas in Bad Deutsch-Altenburg, taste wine in Rust, or watch birds at Seewinkel National Park, a campervan gives you the freedom to move at your own pace. Motorhome travellers will appreciate the network of stellplätze and campsites spread across the region. Through Yescapa, you can hire directly from local owners across eastern Austria, choosing from a wide range of campervans and motorhomes that suit your group size, budget, and travel style.
Best time to visit
Eastern Austria is wonderful from April through to October. Spring brings the Wachau apricot blossom season in April, when the valley turns pink and local festivals celebrate the harvest. Summer is ideal for lakeside camping around Neusiedler See, and September marks the start of the wine harvest across Burgenland, with events like the Weinherbst festival in Rust. Booking a campervan through Yescapa during the shoulder months of May or September often means more competitive peer-to-peer pricing and quieter campsites. Winter travel is also possible, with Vienna's Christmas markets running from mid-November through December, though campsite availability is more limited.

What you need to know about roads and motorways in Eastern Austria
Austria requires a toll vignette for all motorways and expressways. You can purchase a digital vignette online before your trip. Motorhomes over 3.5 tonnes must use the GO-Box system instead, paying tolls based on distance. Speed limits for vehicles under 3.5 tonnes are 130 km/h on motorways and 100 km/h on dual carriageways, but motorhomes over 3.5 tonnes are limited to 80 km/h outside built-up areas and 100 km/h on motorways. Eastern Austria's motorway network, including the A1, A2, and A4, is well-maintained with regular rest areas offering facilities for campervans and motorhomes.
Frequently asked questions
Campervan hire in eastern Austria typically ranges from around €70 to €150 per day, depending on the vehicle size, season, and equipment. Through Yescapa's peer-to-peer platform, you hire directly from local owners, which often means more competitive rates than traditional rental companies. Prices tend to be lower during spring and autumn, and booking well ahead for summer can help you secure the best deal on your trip.
Vienna is the most common pick-up point for motorhome hire in eastern Austria, with a wide choice of vehicles listed by local owners on Yescapa. You can also find options in towns like Tulln an der Donau, Wiener Neustadt, and Eisenstadt. Because Yescapa connects you directly with private owners across the region, pick-up locations are spread out, making it easy to start your trip close to your first destination.
To find affordable hire in eastern Austria, try travelling in the shoulder season — May or September — when peer-to-peer prices on Yescapa tend to drop. Use the platform's filters to compare campervans and motorhomes by price, size, and features. Booking early also helps, especially for popular summer dates. Smaller campervans are generally cheaper to hire and easier to park in the region's towns and vineyard villages.
For couples or solo travellers exploring eastern Austria, a compact campervan with two berths is practical and easy to manoeuvre through the Wachau's narrow valley roads. Families of four or five will be more comfortable in a motorhome with a fixed bed and dinette. On Yescapa, each listing shows the number of berths, sleeping layout, and vehicle dimensions, so you can match the right vehicle to your group before you book.
Yes, many owners on Yescapa welcome dogs and other pets in their campervans and motorhomes. You can filter listings specifically for pet-friendly vehicles when searching in eastern Austria. The region is great for travelling with dogs — lakeside walks around Neusiedler See and trails through the Waldviertel offer plenty of space to explore. Always check the owner's pet policy for any specific requirements before booking.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to rent the camper! Fabio is a fantastic host—incredibly helpful and responsive! And the camper? Despite its age, the camper served us perfectly. Thank you for a wonderful vacation! 😊

We had such a positive experience with Tuija and the Hymer - and even named one of our self-made perfumes after this lovely van! We used the upper bed and were able to keep warm even in chillier nights thanks to the two large duvets (and we brought a hot water bottle rather than using the heating system). Tuija was super helpful in explaining the van to us and very responsive when we had an issue with the fridge. Thanks again and hasta la proxmima :)
